Bio:
The Dahl-Jensen Porcelain Factory was founded in Copenhagen in 1925 by the sculptor Jens Peter Dahl-Jensen (1874–1960). The factory specialised in fine art porcelain and became particularly renowned for its highly detailed animal figures and decorative porcelain objects produced in relatively limited quantities. Dahl-Jensen porcelain is today appreciated by collectors for its craftsmanship and refined Scandinavian design traditions.
